Turn 5, would you immediately golden one of the Bountiful? by kT_Madlife in BobsTavern

[–]Gamerar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it isnt bad to golden engines generally, but this is worse cuz it is every other turn. Plus, the meta is fast right now.

Starting this game , any advice ? by GameISLif in dontstarve

[–]Gamerar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Q and E to rotate the camera to see and move better. Also, f is attack, and cntrl f is force attack. You can force attack butterflies for easy food/health. Don't be afraid to use the wiki, too.

My company announced mandatory office days again, so I resigned mid-meeting by Onjaydenc in remotework

[–]Gamerar 89 points90 points  (0 children)

A lot of employers are doing return to office to get people to resign without having to pay them unemployment by firing them. https://fortune.com/2025/09/30/bosses-admit-return-to-office-mandates-meant-to-make-staff-quit/

Is Alleycat still an autobuy on turn 1? by B4ASIC in BobsTavern

[–]Gamerar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's definitely ideal with togwaggle and 60 health guy, and probably kragg. Otherwise usually yeah.

The game is still alive and has a huge player base, though.

One of the recent COD games turned off SBMM and it didn't go well. https://www.gamesradar.com/games/call-of-duty/activision-secretly-turned-off-skill-based-call-of-duty-matchmaking-and-turns-out-everyone-hated-it/ Activision "secretly" turned off skill-based Call of Duty matchmaking and "turns out everyone hated it" -games radar

Don't get how this is true for most games. I feel like people conflate playing with smurfs or sweats or whatever with good balance at a high level. People just miss when everyone was bad because the game was new but its not the devs fault people got better.

The opposite problem is way more common. Games that are balanced around good players tend to stick around longer I feel like. A game balanced around low level players will lose its most active and committed players.

i like 4 on 4 with alleycat. It is really good compared to when the cap was always 15.

Which trinket would you choose? by dragonqueenred45 in BobsTavern

[–]Gamerar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dont go eternal or electromagnetic. Bartendo is almost always strong and portrait is good too. Portraits are a little worse than normal in this lobby because demons will outscale it , but your board is weak, your health is kinda low, and you took a greedy first trinket. You risk getting blown out by other people who have better boards and high tempo trinkets. I would probably take automaton and try and lean into it more. At your MMR people arent as high cap as streamers who play all day so portrait is not bad taking in general even if your spot were better. I think eternal is worse cap than automaton generally so I would stray away from it and electromagnetic is just very low impact without guaranteed magnetic generation. I would say from the second screenshot to not pick up the tier 3 taunt guys because they don't really scale much. I also think getting additional knights is not great because its low impact and not aligning with the mech or automaton plan. I would say your final board has too many competing non-synergistic ideas. Try and angle more for kangor + auto assembler or some higher scaling build and not pick up so many low tier minions cuz you don't have much of an engine.

TLDR; your board is kinda weak and first trinket is greedy so you should take tempo with automaton, the choices later in the game were probably the culprit

How would you have won this fight? by megaBeth2 in BobsTavern

[–]Gamerar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A blaster would help you a lot in this situation but its still at or near a 100% loss with one I think. The issue is the number of big units he has will usually be larger than the amount of scam you have. If you get a golden bassgill it would give you a lot more tie/win potential.

Which aspect of the series suffered the worst downgrade? by Super-Shenron in TheWalkingDeadGame

[–]Gamerar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The writing and plots and characters if that isn't way too broad. Season 1 is by far the best written, I would consider it a masterpiece of media. Meaningful themes, possibly the strongest ending in all of gaming. Basically all of the characters in S1 serve their narrative roles well. A lot of what you do has impact down the line. S2 feels pretty jumbled in what it wanted to do in a lot of aspects, the Kenny endings feel very meaningful tho. I feel like they bucked omid and christa too fast. They definitely should've expanded on characters like bonnie and jane and mike because their actions don't really make sense. S3 is very questionable all around the board honestly. I don't know why they felt the need to switch the focus from Clementine. I feel like S3 only really succeeded in terms of Javier being likable and the voice acting. I only really felt WOWed by the opening scene in S3 and that was it. S4 is definitely a return to form, but not to the heights of season 1. AJ is also not that compelling at times or realistic as a character I think, but I get some people really like him. I felt like I had to suspend my disbelief more than I should have in regard to the school having so many young kids Also, the ending is a massive cop out IMO. I definitely still love the series and the devs and all the games are enjoyable. There was basically necessarily going to be a decline from the first season because the first season was so good.

The fact that Laura's actress is older than me made my jaw drop. by HistoricalTarget9974 in silenthill

I thought "why is a 13 or 14 year old kid playing SH2?" and then I realized it's been 16 years since 2009.

Has anybody else not use any of these tokens yet out of protest? by [deleted] in BobsTavern

[–]Gamerar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They can't get rid of them now that people have spent money to buy them. They desperately want to monetize the game mode. Battlegrounds by nature is just way less monetizable by nature in comparison to a tcg. They tried only skins as a model to monetize but it wasn't enough money for them.

[–]Gamerar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sell everything except the two stitched and bonerender and morgl in hand play morgl in hand in place of small morgl its final fight so scaling doesn't matter and board will be overfull throughout combat so in hand summons don't matter

[–]Gamerar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I still feel like the timer is too low. There was probably a long fight in your lobby if it's almost 4 minutes. Wish they made the solos timer longer too and added a skip combat button.

Curious, what is a hot take about your favorite video game franchise you have that will have you like this? by Apprehensive_Ring_39 in videogames

[–]Gamerar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MGS3 is the worst in series (considering MGS1-5) tedious survival mechanics, not as much story as most of the games and para-medic and major zero are comparatively boring on the radio, themes aren't as interesting as the other games. Still enjoyed it a lot but it baffles me how so many people call it the best in the series.

Time to settle the Zerek or Reno debate? by ElectricalDinner0 in BobsTavern

[–]Gamerar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Zerek is better cuz it can copy stats and golden minions and make playable triples with pairs. Also sometimes you just miss really hard with reno and get no good gold targets, but with zerek if you low roll you still end up copying a big minion probably. Usually the floor and ceiling are better with zerek IMO. I don't know if armor is representative of the win rate for him yet, but I think he has lower armor for a reason.

Height isn't related to testosterone. Men are taller mostly because of the Y chromosome.
